dfWinReg, or Digital Forensics Windows Registry, provides read-only access to
Windows Registry objects. The goal of dfWinReg is to provide a generic
interface for accessing Windows Registry objects that resembles the Registry
key hierarchy as seen on a live Windows system.

History

dfWinReg originates from the Plaso project and is also based on ideas from the winreg-kb project. It was largely rewritten and made into a stand-alone project to provide more flexibility and allow other projects to make use of Windows Registry functionality.
